Only install 3x AA batteries. The average battery life is approx. 2.5 years. When
the batteries run low, the smoke detector will notify you acoustically and optically.
When you change the batteries, make sure to press the learn button a couple of
times before you insert the new batteries – thus, you discharge any residual
current.

Place of installation:
In case of an alarm, especially a smoke alarm, it is important that the siren of the
alarm panel can be heard in every room of your home, even when doors are
closed, the TV or stereo is turned on. If you cannot hear the siren in every room,
we recommend to use additional sirens for your LUPUSEC alarm panel to make
sure that everybody can react immediately in case of an alarm.
Please observe your countries and counties law about the installation of smoke
detectors.
If there is no law about smoke detectors in your country, the DIN 14676 might be
able to help you (German norm concerning smoke detectors).
In Germany, it is mandatory by law that smoke detectors are installed in every
room you stay in (e.g. living room, sleeping room), cellars, heating rooms, and
hallways.
If your home has more than one floor, we recommend to install at least one smoke
detector in every floor.
The smoke detector can secure an area of approx. 60qm (645 sqft). In larger
rooms, you should use more than one smoke detector.
A minimal distance of 50 cm (19.6 inch) to walls, lamps, corners, decorations, etc.
should be maintained
In rooms with a ceiling slope of >20°, heat can accumulate at the highest point of
the ceiling. This can hinder the smoke detection. Install the smoke detector in a
distance of at least 50 – 100cm (19.6-39.3 inches) from the highest point of the
sloped ceiling.
Places that are not suitable for installation:
To enhance the lifetime of the smoke detector V2 and to reduce false alarms we advise
you to use the LUPUSC heat detector instead of the smoke detector in the following
places/scenarios:
In your kitchen and bathroom. False alarms could be triggered due to high
humidity and steam.
In dusty or dirty areas, e.g. garages, the photodiode could get stained /
contaminated and trigger an alarm.
Directly above ovens, furnaces, kettles…
Close to ventilation systems, ACs, or fans (minimal distance of 1 meter /
39.3inches).
In areas with a draught that might prevent the smoke accumulating in the smoke
detector.
In areas where many insects are present. Small insects could enter the
